Virology researchers have found that a specific protein modification to the immune protein MDA5 is key to how our bodies detect and respond to viruses and viral replication. The publication explains ...

Amino acids are like Lego blocks—they can be linked together to form complex structures called proteins. Unlike Legos, ...

Deubiquitinases (DUBs) are enzymes used by cells to trim protein modifications made from the protein ubiquitin, and thereby regulate proteins. Malfunctioning of DUBs could lead to diseases, including ...

Scientists at the Baylor College of Medicine say they have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) model that reveals how protein modifications link genetic mutations to disease. The method, called ...

An AI model that reveals how protein modifications link genetic mutations to disease has been developed. Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine (TX, USA) have developed an AI model that reveals how ...

In their study, the researchers show that NAC brings two enzymes to the ribosome to first remove the first amino acid from the histone protein and then to modify the newly exposed end with an acetyl ...

A research team has developed an innovative technique that enables precise modification of specific proteins within complex biological environments. A research team led by Professor Seung Soo Oh and ...

N-terminal acetylation represents one of the most ubiquitous protein modifications in eukaryotic cells, with significant implications for protein stability, folding, and interactions. This covalent ...

Cleveland Clinic virology researchers have found that a specific protein modification to the immune protein MDA5 is key to how human bodies detect and respond to viruses and viral replication. This ...

Boston College researchers have used a mild charge of electricity to precisely modify proteins—a new and inexpensive tool that can be used to develop novel biotherapeutics and protein-based research ...

A research team led by Professor Seung Soo Oh and Dr. Hyesung Jo from the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at POSTECH (Pohang University of Science and Technology) has developed an ...
